Pixar do it again!
A very good and enjoyable film that all ages will love. The story sounded odd at first but it's a very cute film. It has a great 10 minute opening which is nearly silent and quite sad for a Pixar film. Once we get to the old guy getting up out of bed and setting off to fulfill a promise it actually becomes quite funny in places. Definitely one all ages will love. Once again the level of detail in the animation is amazing, they seem to set new levels with each new film!

The best Disney Pixar franchise ever
I love this film, and I'm not afraid to admit it. It's beautiful, heartwarming and utterly amusing to watch. I still remember seeing it the first time and being completely mesmerised by the new style graphics. And the story was an update from the usual Brothers Grimm fairy tales , modernised for its young viewers living in the 1990s. Woody and Buzz have the best partnership on screen, and it's one of those rare trilogies where every single film was brilliant. Massive kudos to Disney Pixar.

Beautifully made
I feel like this is a Pixar film that has really flown under the radar. It's been pretty poorly advertised from what I've seen (or haven't seen more like), and this seemed to be reinforced by the fact that there was only half a dozen people in my peak time showing less than a week after release.

I don't understand why though as this is a really good film. The animation is superb, which shouldn't be a surprise considering it's Disney and Pixar, but it's still a marvel to watch. The amazing detail and vibrant colours. The story itself is interesting although maybe a tad predictable in places, I didn't feel as though there was as much humour as there usually is in a Disney/Pixar film. But Miguel is such a likeable protagonist and Dante the dog is pretty loveable too, but I wanted more from him! It had me almost wanting to dance in my seat at times and then towards the end I was really struggling not to shed a tear. It's an emotional story and a very good one at that. It might not be my favourite of Pixar films, but it's definitely fairly high on the list. It's just a shame it may not reach as many people as it should.

I went to a screening during the preview weekend here in the UK a couple of weeks back. It was showing in the largest screen of my local cinema and I arrived sightly late, expecting to fight through crowds of kids to get my seat. Amazingly, the cinema was almost empty and there were probably 20 people there when the movie actually started. I don't think it's been advertised or marketed anywhere near as much as other Pixar movies

It was advertised like crazy here plus I live down the way from Disneyland lol.
They did the same thing with The Good Dinosaur great movie but it didn't really do that well and like with what you said I rarely saw it advertised except at Disneyland.

Superb entertainment for all the family.
Irresistible characters.
Great fun, lots of humour and a must watch, even now, over 22 years after first release.
Tom Hanks as Woody.
The film sports a provocative and appealing story that's every bit the equal of this technical achievement.

Nice idea
Most pixar films blow you away with the details of the animation, characters, story and voice cast. This just felt a bit short in every aspect compared to some of their recent films. One more for younger kids.

Following in from the first it was an engaging and entertaining film. In some ways it's better than the first (laughs) however it still hits what pixar does well and hits us with emotional feelings. (0 more)
A good follow up to finding nemo, less emotional story and more light hearted . (0 more)

Incredible film
One of my favourite animated films, probably in the Top 3. Pixar do it again, the level of detail not only in the characters but even the backgrounds is amazing. Plenty of humour for grown ups as well as the kids.

I love John Ratzenberger! Even though he is most famous for playing Cliff the mailman on "Cheers" he has also had a voice in every Pixar film and even roles in the original Superman from 1978 and The Empire Strikes Back?

Talk about a great career!!
